"2027 Statement: 'Anyone Advocating for Goodluck Jonathan's Return is Seeking Trouble,' according to Wike"
Nyesom Wike Speaks Out on Goodluck Jonathan's Potential 2027 Presidential Bid and Economic Challenges
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has weighed in on the speculations surrounding Goodluck Jonathan's potential return to active politics in 2027. During an interview on Channels Television's 'Politics Today', Wike expressed his views on the matter, but did not provide any new information about Jonathan's intentions.
Wike defended the government's hardship-inducing decisions, stating that they were necessary for economic repositioning. He also criticised those who abandoned Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 for now calling for his return, labelling it as hypocritical. Wike further suggested that those advocating for Jonathan's return are plotting to plunge the country into crisis, and that some people want to drag him into unnecessary conflicts.
In addition to discussing Goodluck Jonathan's potential return, Wike addressed the current economic challenges facing the nation. He admitted to the hardship in the country but insisted that President Bola Tinubu had taken tough but necessary decisions to reposition the economy.
Wike also took aim at Atiku Abubakar, accusing him of hypocrisy regarding his recent warning of a looming revolution due to hunger and poverty. Wike stated that as Vice President for eight years, Atiku should have laid the foundation to prevent such conditions. He further expressed disbelief in the truth of Atiku's statements, stating that he has seen improvements in Abuja, attributing them to the current government's efforts.
Despite the speculations, Goodluck Jonathan has yet to make any statement regarding his potential 2027 presidential bid. There have been reports that some members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are wooing him to contest on its platform in the next election, but Wike did not provide any new information about these rumours. Similarly, there are no search results indicating who within the PDP has declared support for Goodluck Jonathan in the 2027 presidential election.
In conclusion, while Nyesom Wike did not provide any new information about Goodluck Jonathan's potential 2027 presidential bid, he did express his views on the matter and defend the government's economic decisions. He also criticised Atiku Abubakar for his recent statements regarding hunger and poverty, stating that he should have laid the foundation to prevent such conditions during his time as Vice President.
